If it's in the installation guide I haven't been able to find it, which
is why I'm asking here. :)

You may be thinking of the "MaxActive" attribute which can appear in
context.xml when connecting to a database through Tomcat, but we aren't
doing that.  The section on db configuration in roller.properties
doesn't mention connections (we are using jdbc):

#---------------------------------
# Database configuration settings
# Specify database configuration type of 'jndi' or 'jdbc'
database.configurationType=jndi
# For database configuration type 'jndi',this will be used
database.jndi.name=jdbc/rollerdb
# For database configuration type of 'jdbc', you MUST override these
database.jdbc.driverClass=
database.jdbc.connectionURL=
database.jdbc.username=
database.jdbc.password=

Can anyone point me at the configuration property I'm looking for?
